Hold

Reason

HSBC analyst Saul Martinez raised the firm's price target on JPMorgan to $245 from $237 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. Bank stocks have pulled back, offering selective opportunities to add exposure, says the analyst, who raised the firm's 2025-26 adjusted EPS estimates among the group by about 1%-7% to incorporate higher net interest income, investment banking fees, and share repurchase estimates.

Reason

TD Cowen raised the firm's price target on JPMorgan to $400 from $375 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. The firm adjusted bank targets as part of a Q4 earnings preview. TD expects "solid" Q4 reports for the banks with continued balance sheet growth, repricing tailwinds, and a "likely more dovish" Federal Reserve chair in 2026. These "durable tailwinds" should lift bank stocks in 2026, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Truist analyst John McDonald raised the firm's price target on JPMorgan to $331 from $330 and keeps a Hold rating on the shares. Core themes for the U.S. large-cap banks feel similar to last year's, including ROTCE expansion levers, net interest margin healing, capital return, positive operating leverage capacity, and whether GSIBs can continue to outperform regionals, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Each of the stocks in the firm's large-cap banks universe has an attractive mix of EPS growth and ROTCE expansion drivers, which set up a solid outlook for 2026, Truist says.
